Awesome! Thanks! Enjoy a beer! ;) My encoder was behaving perfectly in 1.9g but in 1.9h, not so much :s I will definitely invert the shift behavior as it seems backwards for the way I use it,,, I'll try the test mode.... 2nd edit: don't frget to run cmd as admin, dummy ;) edit: so I'm trying to compile the ASM file with test mode enabled. I followed the toolchain tutorial in the wiki, set path, modified makefile to only compile sammichSID but when I do MAKE, I get a bunch of errors: [...] ./include/asm\macros.h:61:Error[113] Symbol not previously defined (GIE) ./include/asm\macros.h:65:Error[113] Symbol not previously defined (INTCON) ./include/asm\macros.h:65:Error[113] Symbol not previously defined (INTCON) ./include/asm\macros.h:65:Error[113] Symbol not previously defined (GIE) ./src\sidplay.inc:438:Error[113] Symbol not previously defined (STATUS) ./src\sidplay.inc:438:Error[113] Symbol not previously defined (STATUS) ./src\sidplay.inc:438:Error[113] Symbol not previously defined © ./src\sidplay.inc:439:Error[113] Symbol not previously defined (BANKED) [...] This is but a small extract of a command window overflowing with errors Any clue what is wrong? I have no prior compiling experience so it might be something stupid. thanks

oh awesome then, the synth is working fine so should be ok until the solder breaks haha (and damn my poor RTFM skills!) Thanks TK

Thank you TK, this worked! However I wish this was documented somewhere :s if I had known I could just send the code without an initial "sync" with MIOS I wouldn't have attempted to remove the PIC to try and reprogram it... Which brings me to my next question: I damaged pin 40 (PGD) which I jury rigged with a lot of swearing involved... pardon my lack of knowledge but am I right in assuming the "repair" worked if I was able to reprogram the PIC properly? (my shoddy repair: http://bit.ly/1wbBOfn) Thank again! It's quite a relief to see my sammichSID working again and I did learn quite a lot! hehe Francis // XC3N

Hi! I wanted to upgrade the Application package in my sammichSID and things went awry =( What I've done: Connect a UM-1EX USB MIDI interface in the Synth Launch MIOS Studio 2.4.6 Browsed to \midibox_sid_v2_043\setup_sammich_sid.hex Hit Start The upload went fine, the synth rebooted but after rebooting it has the following behavior: Synths get powered up, emits a pop, LCD initializes (sometimes displays garbage) A series of beeps is emited Series of beep is played faster The LCD goes on "light show" mode I've seen once the MIOS init screen stating "Launching CS" but it remained there. Synth does not boot up at all, MIOS studio doesn't "see" it either. The only (dumb?) thing I noticed is that I had midi clock running TO the synth while I did the upgrade, possibly inducing data "noise" in the upgrade process? (I'm not too good with sysex) Any help would be appreciated as I fear my sammichSID will require pic reprogramming outside of its shell, which I'm not equiped for x_X

I'm having a hard time routing a midi controller through the software (allowing me to both configure patches and play them out as I do so with a keyboard) did anyone have any luck with this? Thanks!

how do you guys use the java editor and control the midibox at the same time? midiyoke?

thank you for the long response, it was totally of use =) you made me conscious of some mad scientist apparatus I had going in the midi out of the synth, seems fine since I disconnected that... =s hehehe

I only seem to get the issue when clock is on on top of other signals... CCs or note events by themselves do not do that... I'm not sure how to test for shorts either =s

but isn't it weird that it only does that when it receives midi clock on top of signal? The power supply is an universal one... set to 12v, 1a

Hello again, As some might remember, I solved my filter problems by lowering the current sent to the LCD. Happy to get everything working properly I then hooked up the box to renoise. I am sending start/stop and clock from the host, as well as sending notes and CCs My problem is that when I do all of these things together, the LCD's brightness starts to kind of flicker and dim down... Any idea why it would do that? If it's just an inconvenience I don't mind that much but I'm affraid something is wrong and I might burn out my unit .... Thanks! Francis // XC3N

I found the problem! My LCD was drawing waay too much current... I toned down the brightness dimmer a bit and now it sounds amazing! Thanks TK, this is amazing!

ok let's try to embed some audio This is the idle noise on patch A041 - Math Game, followed by the idle noise on A040 - Ramp Up A041-MathGame -> A040-RampUp Here are some default patches that I figure are not sounding right: A063-Slow Intro A060-6 Octave Plug This last one is the Drum Kit 2 default patch, I assigned a LP to 123 and I'm gradually cutting from maxto min, and again, over the loop A034-Drum Kit 2 Cutoff Tweak EDIT(s): Ah, here is the EXT ON noise: EXT Filter on idle noise + Filter tweaks ...ok now my LCD is starting to flicker o_O like there is not enough power...

Yes I'm using a cheap ass meter =) I measured with the ground right next to the power entry. I will take audio samples tonight and upload them, as well as check the ext filter trick! Thanks again, will repost soon
